DE AUREA (Latin) means, “about gold”. This refers to the many treasures of Nature and especially to a plant called “black gold”: Nigella .
Whether ingested or applied topically, all DE AUREA products are formulated with natural ingredients. And all contain Nigella, an ancient plant with multiple therapeutic benefits.
A celebration of Nature and the queen of medicinal plants, Nigella, DE AUREA also pays homage to traditional medicine.
This is a medicine where knowledge, practices, and natural remedies are passed down from generation to generation. Where plants and minerals are used for their active properties. A holistic approach to care that only considers treatment when addressed in its entirety. Because everything is connected: the body's interior, its outer layer, and its environment are in constant dialogue and interaction.
"SCIENCE AND NATURE ARE NOT OPPOSED,
"THEY COMPLEMENT EACH OTHER."

THE POWERS OF NATURE'S BLACK GOLD
Nigella sativa, aurum nigrum.
From the East to the Mediterranean basin, this seed has long been, and remains, revered as a treasure of nature. For millennia, black cumin has embodied the strength of life itself. As early as Ancient Egypt, it was part of beauty and care rituals. It is said to “heal everything except death.”
The Persian physician, philosopher, and scholar Avicenna (980–1037) contributed to its renown. In his famous work, The Canon of Medicine, he described it as a stimulant of vital energy and recovery.
Its golden oil, obtained by first cold pressing, can be applied to the skin or taken as a natural supplement. Used externally, it soothes, regenerates, and protects the epidermis. Taken internally, it supports immune defenses, helps regulate inflammation, stimulates digestion, and assists the body in restoring overall balance.

At the heart of the small black seeds of its flower lies a concentration of precious active compounds: thymoquinone, essential fatty acids (omega 3, 6, and 9), flavonoids, vitamins A, E, and B, along with a wealth of polyphenols and minerals that nourish, protect, and deeply repair the skin.
Thymoquinone, the emblematic molecule of black cumin, acts as a cellular shield. With antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties, it helps the skin combat oxidative stress, soothes irritation, and supports tissue renewal.
Essential fatty acids restore the skin barrier, strengthen hydration, and bring back elasticity and radiance.
Flavonoids and polyphenols stimulate the skin’s natural defenses and help delay the visible signs of time.
